My Ovation came without a neck strap button, they told me to put the strap on the head stock, but they sold me a button which I screwed into botton of the neck.
choice is yours.

Thanks for your input.  At the monent I am using a Shure mic, to a Belinger mixer, and recording onto a Boss recorder, which works O.K. for now.

Hi Philip,
Yes I do my own songs, but when I play live they perfer songs that they know, so I'm keeping away from them at the moment, and only play one or two per gig.

Hi fatstrings,
Thank you very much.

I used the Chordie list of "people will to help", to find someone to help me with problem that I was having recording with my Boss Micro BR.

I could not have asked for more help than that as been offered by Mr Philip Wiliams, he has been most helpfull, and over four or five emails he solved all the problems that I could not overcome, he slowly educated me on both the Boss, which it turned out, was not the problem, and then the mixer, where I was making a sutpid mistake, over and over again.

Without his help I would not be able to inflict my music on the world, for this part I am sorry, but I am enjoying myself, so please click the link and think kindly of me

Thank you Philip.

Worst injuries I get when playing, are to my pride, when I ask my wife, "how dose it sound ?", and the bugger tells me.

Thanks for the tab.  you will find lots and lots of help on this site, just ask and you will be answered.

but blues and jazz being similar I find hard to understand.  I play blues, but I can not play jazz.  I think that you need a deep understanding of the music to be able to play it.

Never tried the Pandora, but I use a Boss Micro BR, it looks to be basicly the same bit of kit, so I would look at the price of the two just to see which is best for your needs.

I am unsure about how to pick a good mic, and I just woundered if it is important to have a expensive mic, considering that your voice is going through a amp that alters the tone of the voice.
So, should I  get a expensive new mic, or not ?.
If yes, what is considered the be the best mic for all round use and rock.
Thank you for your time

Sorry Russell,
They did not work, first one I could not delete the code already in, on clicking right there was no delete option for me.
I tried CoolChasers, it worked, but My Space would not allow it to post onto there site.
I think that my only option is to close down my page and start again, but would lose all the hits that I have had so far.

Hi Russell,
I'm having trouble changing the look of my page on "My Space".  I konw what I want, and how to get it, but I cannot get it to post onto the page.
When I what I want it tells me to "post it to the about me section", firstly I don't know where this area is, and secondly I have tried everything, and nothing works.
Please could you help Russell,

Thanks Dino,
I do this as offern as I can, it is really good fun, sometimes I even get paid, not a lot but around £30 per gig which only lasts about 1 1/2 hours.
I also have a Boss Recorder, and I have put some stuff on my space, also I have contacted a agent who seems keen for me to play with the agency, he has asked me to put together some standards for him to hear, you never know it may work out.
Thank very much for your interest
